Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials to Diagnose Vestibular Neuritis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1635-1644, April 2026.
Standardization of stimulation and recording protocols is essential to improve comparability across VEMP studies. Integrating cervical and ocular VEMPs with other vestibular tests enhances diagnostic accuracy and supports precise localization of vestibular neuritis.

A frequency peak at 3.1 kHz obtained from the spectral analysis of the cochlear implant electrocochleography noise.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
IntroductionThe functional evaluation of auditory-nerve activity in spontaneous conditions has remained elusive in humans. In animals, the frequency analysis of the round-window electrical noise recorded by means of electrocochleography yields a ...

New Impedance Field Telemetry Heat Map for Assessing Electrode Array in MED‐EL Cochlear Implants

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare MED‐EL's new impedance field telemetry (IFT) heat map interface for confirmation of surgical placement of the electrode array to conventional imaging. Methods A retrospective study was completed on 35 patients who received MED‐EL cochlear implants between 2017 and 2024 for whom both IFT and radiologic data were available ...

Axon Initial Segment: Structure, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
The axon initial segment (AIS) is a specialized axonal domain critical for maintaining neuronal polarity, action potential initiation, and network stability. This review summarizes the necessary elements for maintaining AIS structure and plasticity, discussing crucial biological functions of AIS in neuronal signaling and the neural circuit homeostasis,

Clinical Diagnostics After Failed Hearing Screening in People With Intellectual Disabilities Do Not Often Take Place

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, Volume 70, Issue 4, Page 384-394, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Individuals with intellectual disabilities are at higher risk of undiagnosed or inadequately treated hearing loss. This situation requires easily accessible hearing screening, diagnostics and intervention programmes in the living environment, i.e., in nurseries, schools, workplaces and homes.

Electrical Control of the Transduction Channels’ Gating Force in Mechanosensory Hair Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
The inner ear's hair cells rely on mechanosensitive ion channels to convert vibrations of their hair‐bundle into electrical signals. We show that varying the electrical potential (U) across the sensory epithelium modulates a key determinant of mechanosensitivity—the gating force (FG)—by modulating the gating swing (d), ranging from the size of the ...
